This chapter focuses on the development of collaborative technologies that underpin a 'community of practice'. The bottom-up approach provides the foundation for greater understanding of these emerging collaborative spaces. Concepts that underpin On-line engagement and evolving digital communication standards are addressed. These concepts provide the basis for examining operational and social processes; including administrative and technological frameworks, as well as leadership techniques. Modeling techniques are then described to show how to integrate foundational concepts with social and operational processes. These modeling techniques encourage interdisciplinary communication and broad engagement in community planning and development.
